The cry of “Attack!” echoed through the courtyard, ripping away whatever control had barely held us together mere seconds before.Kieran’s arm locked around me like tightly, his claws grazing through the cloak I’d stolen from his corner chair. “Stay here.”“Oh yeah, sure,” I muttered, feeling smothered as my cheek pressed again him. “I’ll just sit pretty and hope your enemies politely don’t use me as a bargaining chip. Perfect plan, Alpha.”His growl vibrated straight into my ribcage, so deep it made my knees wobble. “Not now, Elowyn.”Rowan had vanished back into the shadows, but I caught a flash of his golden hair ducking toward his men at the far edge of the square. He didn’t so much as glance back at me, but I felt guilty regardless.Meanwhile the courtyard turned into a battlefield before my eyes. Wolves sprinted for the gates, some shifting mid-stride with sickening cracks of bone and sinew. Omegas herded pups indoors, their voices sharp with urgency, while warriors dragged open

She sat tall at his side with perfect posture, wearing a gown of deep emerald that hugged her frame like it had been sewn to her skin. Her fire-red hair was braided down one shoulder, and her face was so breathtaking it hurt to look at. But there was no softness in her beauty, and I could immediately tell that she wasn’t one to be messed with. She would grind me under the heels of her shoes and love every second of it.When she spoke, everyone in the room quieted down to pay attention.“We must punish them,” she said, her voice cool, ringing like a bell of judgment. “Triple their load, chain them if they will not bow. Fear is the only leash that keeps them in line.”Rowan turned to her sharply. “Lyra---"I blurted out, “Is that really necessary though?” before I could stop myself. Fuck. Now you’ve done it, Iris, good going.All eyes turned to me, pinning me in place. Even Kieran turned to face me, lifting one eyebrow.“I…I just meant,” Shut up, shut up, shut up. “I just meant that ki

If you had asked me a week ago, I would've said there was no way a werewolf could ever be afraid of humans. But seeing their reactions to the infected wolf, I couldn't blame them. I had never witnessed anything so horrific in my entire life."Derell! No!" I turned to look, and it was his wife, screaming and reaching out for her now insane, dying husband as the other werewolves struggled to stop her."Let me go! Let me go! Derrel! What have they done to you?" she screamed in pain."What are we going to do? They're inside," Anya whispered, clutching my sleeves tightly, like she was expecting me to do something.How the fuck was I supposed to know that?!"They breached the walls?" My voice cracked, rising embarrassingly high. "Where are they? Inside the borders? Inside the courtyard? Can someone please be specific here before I pass out?"No one stopped long enough to give me an answer. Warriors shifted mid-run, rushing to seek out the intruders, their bones snapping and twisting into fu

I kept my mouth shut as the guards escorted me through the tunnels, but alarms were blaring in my head still.I had seen it, clear as day. The guard had lifted up his hand like he was holding a phone, muttering something about reinforcements, before he froze and realised what he was doing.But there were definitely no phones here, neither were there any cell towers or Wi-Fi. This was supposed to be medieval werewolf land, with torches and swords and forests that stretched for miles in every direction.So why the hell had he just acted like he was calling someone?The safe house turned out to be less of a “safe house” and more like a “creepy storage bunker.” The guards shoved open a heavy wooden door, revealing a dark stone chamber with thick walls and no windows inside.A single lazy fire torch sputtered on the wall, its shadows creeping eerily across the floor, doing little to take away the darkness.“Stay here,” one of them said in a calm, even voice.Because of the fight that I had

I knew right then and there that the kiss should have ended when it started, as just a brush of lips stolen in anger and exhaustion, but it didn't. It didn’t, and it dragged me under instead, the fire of it burning too hot for words. His mouth pressed harder against mine like he was starving, as though I was the only thing that could ever keep him alive.I gasped when his hand slid deeper into my hair, pulling deliciously tight until my head tipped back, his teeth grazing my bottom lip in a way that made my whole body shiver."God, Kieran," I whispered breathlessly, the sound breaking between a laugh and a moan, before I immediately shut up. My cheeks burned as I blushed with embarrassment. I wasn’t even aware I could make that sort of sound.His growl vibrated through me as he answered, "Say it again.""Hmm, Kieran," I teased him, this time deliberately husky, even though my knees were turning to water underneath me.His lips curved against mine, but this time there was no trace of
